Idle time is good. I have close to a one hour commute, each way. Just me in my car. I dont rush or drive aggressively so my mind can be relaxed. My mind can wander, be idle. Most of the time the radio is not on, or just serves as background

I guess I should rephrase what I tried to say. If I have 2 minutes to kill, what is better than browsing Facebook or Hacker News.

Nah, I didn't think you were curt. This was my solution for a while. Problem is when I read I hate to stop mid sentence or paragraph. While if on FB, or HN I can close without a care. I may need to take up less serious reading material

With smartphones being ubiquitous, and we all have a few minutes here and there to spare...we just need to come up with a better and productive way to kill those time where you are idle. Any suggestions? Right now I'm waiting on my wif

Your original comment said "If whites have high test scores while non-whites don't" Whites do not have the highest test scores. Are you implying Asian Americans live in wealthier areas than whites?

The purpose of the link I think is not about other countries but the subset between Asian Americans, white Americans, multi racial Americans and other races. White and multi racial are very similar. Asian Americans are much higher. Unless

I think they are independent, I never took stats but took calculus in high school :) Just seemed surprised that OP seemed to imply his high school offered only two courses... Algebra and calculus. Mine offered algebra 1,2, stats 1,2 geometr

It's funny because in the real world, if the test was a project and you find is he'd in 25% on schedule. You would keep your job and others get fired. But in school, if you go a 100% in 15 minutes and another kid 90% in 60 minutes

My wife runs an after school learning center. She has had parents withdraw because they would rather their kids spend more time practicing sports. She's also had parents complain that their kids aren't being progressed fast enough

If it's a large company I imagine there are many positions open. With enough clout - why not become an executive, or even take a step lower, in another area of the business? Hopefully the company values your leadership and managerial s

The whole department that does the statistics modeling is based on one guy starting it up... And he probably has nothing to do with the rest of Target's operations.

They have large selection and because third party vendors can store their items in Amazon and fulfillment centers and get it shipped via prime. Unless Target also does that, Amazon will always have a much larger selection of items (like 100

I honestly don't know why it takes Walmart so long to switch over. I live in Atlanta and I've seen one that has it... And another a few miles away not. I've never used the new layout, but the old one sucks. I was there to pic

I'd say try keeping that pop up open after you upload...even though it says it will email you the results. It may or may not work for you - could be a coincidence for me. On my 3rd day of trying I just kept it open and got an email a f

If you have mutual funds, index funds... You are likely a shareholders of a misbehaving company. So... Are you ready for jail time?
